Hello dear friends, Hope everyone had a wonderful day. It was a nice day, plenty of sunshine.We had company from Dallas. Our granddaughter,Amy and her husband, and our daughter Debra .We had a good dinner, and a nice visit with everyone. We still have some things to take down from Christmas,decorations etc. ,but my husband helped me take the tree down and store it away. We have enjoyed the time spent with friends , and loved ones, during Christmas and we are always so thankful, to our dear Lord for His love, and our good health that He blesses us with, and for having a wonderful family , and friends.Well ,the New Year will be coming in soon , guess we will have our black eyed peas, and corn bread,and probably some cabbage too. (smile)

Well hello dear friends, It has been awhile, But here i am again. Iwent shopping this evening, had to pick up a few more things i needed for our christmas dinner, I have done a little moregift buying also. but Im doing things a little different this year. my husband and I decided to select things of ours, that we would like to be passed on to our children , give each one of our children and their family . a christmas gift , of that item., for their home. , of course it s small items , things that we liked and treasured .And I think they will like them too. But for the little ones ,I know they like Little toys, ect. We have so many sweet grandchildren, great, and three great ,great grandchildren now. Iused to fix all the little ones fruit bags, with candy and nuts in them, and they all liked that very well. Reminds me now, of when i was a little girl, going to grandma, and grandpas house,at christmas , we may have had less gifts then . but we had plenty of good things to eat., and lots of Love. I have to mention this,it was so special to me,One christmas, when i was small, My mother, and grandmother , had made me a coat of many colors out of scraps. so pretty, and i liked it so much. when i hear Dolly Parton sing her song ,Ithink of my coat, and you know how the song goes. GOD IS ALWAYS SO GOOD TO US
